Telkom is coming after Vodacom and MTN in South Africa’s small towns and cities

• Telkom is indeed coming after Vodacom and MTN in South Africa’s small towns and cities as part of its country-wide regional strategy.
• Telkom's regional strategy aims to increase its share of acquisitions and gain market share in non-metro regions, driven by strong data revenue growth, particularly in mobile data and fibre-related data revenue.
• Telkom's expansion into under-indexed and underserved regions is expected to intensify competition with Vodacom and MTN, potentially leading to a shake-up in the South African telecoms market.
